The 52nd Annual Filmfare Awards were held in Mumbai on Saturday evening (February 24). This time round the awards ceremony has had a ‘makeover’, with the event being a closed-door black-tie one.
Hrithik beat SRK to it
2006 proved that the new superstar on the block was Hrithik Roshan. And so it came as no surprise when Hrithik won this year's Filmfare award for Best Male Actor in a leading role for ‘Dhoom 2’. Hrithik, who was also nominated for his performance in ‘Krrish’, underplayed his contribution as expected.
“It feels great, its Filmfare, its an acknowledgment of all the hard work that we all put in as a team in Dhoom 2, and I stand here as a symbol of that team work,” said Hrithik.
Hrithik beat competitors like Aamir Khan, Sanjay Dutt and Shahrukh Khan. SRK, who was nominated for ‘Don’ and ‘Kabhi Alvida Na Kehna’and is well-known for his love for awards, didn't seem too concerned about losing out.
“No, no, no. I am never disappointed, see my logic is very simple. If I get it the awards look good, if I don't get it they don't know what they're doing...nah (laughs). I had a great time, I think (Hrithik) deserved it completely. I'm ok, as long as I am entertaining people,” said SRK.
